The Hungry Detective by Leo J. Du Lac Pdf

Roger du Bois has wanted to be a detective since he was a little boy, despite the fact that his father wants him to join the family construction business in Downey, California. But at the ripe age of eighteen, Roger convinces his father to allow him to attend a detective school in France, as he always read that the French had the best detective schools. With two weeks left in his schooling, Le Caisse Banque Nationale in Nice, France, is robbed. Determined to be the first detective to respond, Roger rushes out the door before eating breakfast, which may prove to be the worst decision he's ever made. Even though he hasn't technically finished his schooling, Roger has no hesitation and quickly convinces the bank manager to give him the case. As Roger begins to investigate the bank vault, he learns that these robbers are good—very good. By the looks of things, they've been planning this robbery for months, maybe years. Will Roger manage to catch the larronges who've robbed the largest bank in Nice? Will he be pummeled to death by the angry mob? Or will he die from hunger before he solves his first case? Join author Leo J. Du Lac in The Hungry Detective—a thrilling tale about a detective who simply longs to make a name for himself and find something to eat.

Tracking King Kong by Cynthia Marie Erb Pdf

In Tracking King Kong Cynthia Erb charts the cultural significance of the character of King Kong, from the early 1930s, when Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack's classic film King Kong was first released, to Peter Jackson's 2005 remake. Although King Kong has received much academic attention over the past twenty-five years, the bulk of these analyses deal with the film's human characters rather than Kong himself. In this revised edition of an influential study, Erb argues that King Kong is a particular kind of cultural outsider who represents a cross-penetration of American notions of exoticism and monstrosity. Tracking King Kong considers problems such as race and gender in the King Kong tradition, as well as historical, international, and contemporary audience and fan responses to this classic film and its popular protagonist. Erb begins her examination of King Kong in the 1930s, when the original film was produced and released, extending through the 1970s, when the film and its hero reached the height of their cultural visibility in a remake by Dino De Laurentiis, and concluding with a look at Peter Jackson's version in 2005. The book includes a detailed production history of the original 1933 film based on primary historical and archival sources; a genre study examining Kong's relations to horror, jungle adventure, and travel documentary genres; an analysis of Kong's influence on the Japanese film Godzilla; and a look at sequels, remakes, and spinoffs related to King Kong, such as Mighty Joe Young. Erb also analyzes Jackson's remake of King Kong, to determine how and why Jackson revised the main character, casting him as a melancholy hero. The revised edition of Tracking King Kong updates a groundbreaking study of King Kong as the iconic character enters the twenty-first century. Scholars of film and television studies as well as general readers interested in film and popular culture will appreciate this significant volume.
